[QUOTE="Chaddman, post: 985104, member: 78916"] Hmmmm. Of coarse you guys never make it easy on the new guy to choose a twist rate. Just giving you a hard time:) I guess I will probably decide on a 12.0/8.0 gain twist or a 11.0/7.5 gain twist. Or even step it up a hair to a 7.25 like you are your friend are running. My thought process is to hopefully get at gain twist combo that will shoot most if not all the CEB's well or very well and then let the barrel choose which bullet(s) it likes the most. I also want to stay away from a twist that has an excessively radical transition in twist between the breech end and the muzzle like 13.0/6.0 or more. But even that is not as scientific as it sounds due to lack of testing in twist rates. You've said it yourself that your still testing the waters so I surely don't know either. What contours are you and your friend running on your 7.25 exits? Also when taking payment does Bartlein ask for money up front or when the barrel is complete and ready to ship? [/QUOTE]
